Salesforce: Mass Update from List View using JavaScript

Sometimes back, we discussed on how to update Salesforce with JavaScript from a button in a page layout. Next, recently we have issue on how to replicate the same for many records to mass update from list view? Inline Editing in one the option to mass update records from a list view, read this blog for more information on how to use inline editing in list view.
